For Seniors: Viking always makes their cruises accessible to everyone. There are options for those more or less mobile. There were ramps to get on and off the boat, but I saw people that used walkers navigate them. For Solo Travelers: It was an easy trip for a solo traveler. The dining seating allowed for connections and conversations with other passengers--you felt like you got to know everyone by the end of the cruise. Viking handles luggage, transportation, and any special requests with ease.
